The “minimum requirement” on Windows Server 2003 is 128 MB of RAM. But it will run fine on less. To do this there are two text files that need change in the installer.

Copy the install files to your hard drive, then in the I386 folder of the installer do the following: In DOSNET.INF change:

MinimumMemory = 134217782

to

MinimumMemory = 67108864 (or less)

In TXTSETUP.SIF search for RequiredMemory and change it from:

RequiredMemory = 134217782

to

RequiredMemory = 67108864 (or less)

The DOSNET.INF will change the requirement for the GUI installer. Only changing this will allow you to install within another Windows installation, but the text installer will use the TXTSETUP.SIF to look for the RAM requirement.

About a week ago I felt an urge to get a big whiteboard for my room. The only problem I had was the price. I didn’t feel like going out and spending $100 on something that I didn’t need. So I searched online randomly and found other people suggested tileboard or showerboard. The only tileboard I could find locally was at Lowe’s for a 2.7’x4’ sheet for about $9. So I went into the store and found panelboard for only about $12 for a 4’x8’ sheet. It did have a few dents in it, but not big ones. I built a custom frame from some extra plywood that was lying around and mounted it to a wall with a picture frame holder. The whole thing ended up costing about $20 rather than $200 for a whiteboard of the same size. It’s also not magnetic like real ones.
